Charlotte a novel  of david Foenkinos (nrf edition) is the biography of the artist Charlotte Salomon persecuted by the Nazis,  refugee in France and which used the postal dispatch to spread her autobiographical work . Before dying at the age of 26, Charlotte had entrusted her drawings, collages and collection of administrative documents of her exile, to her young doctor.
 
But having read this biography the cousin of Charlotte found the archives of the doctor and discovered that he had immersed himself in the 80's mail art network where   the dispersal of Charlotte's work was completed but each of the sendings was catalogued through precise notices & photographed carefully; he moves then in every corner of Europe to reconstitute a memory of this network; it is the object of the serial which will appear in the pages of IUOMA before finding a publisher .
